Progress with the Toe Nails

Will hit a HUGE milestone this past month!  Since he was tiny he has always had a horrific fear of getting his toenails trimmed.  Why you say... I HAVE NO IDEA!!!  He is fine with trimming the fingernails, but screams, cries, drools and snots all over with the toenails.

However, something clicked this month one day when Brett took him out on the deck to complete the "torture" task once again.  Will actually held it together and didn't cry!  I was dumb founded!  From now on,  Brett gets to continue this task and work his toe nail trimming magic.

In addition, Will has also made progress with his haircuts.  We've been cutting his hair since he was a baby. We have always had to distract him with songs,  a t.v. show, silly faces, suckers, candy....whatever to keep him still and occupied.  Now he knows what's going to happen & how he has to sit to get "the coolest hair ever!"  No suckers or silliness required.

Spiderman has been the craze lately.  Will puts his costume on at least every other day and runs around trying to climb the walls.  Well, last week, Kate decided to be spider girl.  She dug out her Halloween costume from when she was 2 and put it on. The tall black boots and all.  Only 1 little thing missing...... she forgot her pants!!  Good thing Daddy wasn't home to see this one!
